5 seconds of F(r)ame

Following the bombings in London, there has been a move towards more security in centres including Sydney. Options suggested vary from a smart identity card and stripping citizenship from terrorists to increased surveillance measures. When reporting such measures on the Channel 9 shows "A Current Affair'' and "Late Night News" the visuals showed CCTV security footage shot in Sydney - without the knowledge of those shown! All I can say is thank goodness I wasn't doing anything strange or wearing anything odd when I was filmed on Tuesday otherwise my 5 seconds of f(r)ame could have been embarrassing. (And imagine if one had been captured doing something like snogging someone not their partner. Some would say we live in dangerous times!)
